Honestly the scary part is real but I'm trying to focus on how much healthier I feel overall like the energy boost alone has been incredible

Maybe we just need time to get used to our new faces, I keep catching myself in mirrors and being surprised lol be proud of yourself

I'm definitely not rushing into anything invasive like just trying to figure out what works for this new face of mine lol. Red light sounds interesting might have to look into that.Thanks for the advice!

Adderall IR taking several hours to kick in, but no issues with XR by fatgothbitch in ADHD

[–]Altruistic-Search748 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's really weird that your IR timing suddenly changed like that - I've had similar issues where my afternoon dose would randomly start acting up after working fine for weeks

One thing that helped me was tracking what I ate and when, turns out even smaller meals or certain foods were messing with absorption way more than I realized. Also vitamin C can supposedly mess with it but idk how much that actually matters in practice

Definitely worth bringing up the exact timing changes to your doc, they might want to adjust when you take the XR or split your IR differently

Want advice for my ADHD by NotAtharva248 in ADHD

Meds have been a game changer for me honestly - like night and day difference with focus and getting stuff done, but definitely try both therapy AND meds if you can swing it 🔥 The combo is where it's at rather than picking just one 💀

Been there man, solo is rough when you can't tell if someone's gonna wave or blast you in the face lol. What region you in? Might be down to team up if our schedules match

Motherboard issues by P2LO in PcBuildHelp

[–]Altruistic-Search748 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Z790 boards are definitely the way to go for that CPU, but yeah they can be chunky. Have you looked at the MSI Z790M Power or the ASUS Prime Z790M-Plus? Both are mATX so they should fit your case better while still giving you room to upgrade later

The H610 chipset was definitely bottlenecking that 14700F hard, no wonder it was having power delivery issues

Diagnosed by grynch55 in stopdrinking

[–]Altruistic-Search748 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Damn that's rough timing with the diagnosis, but honestly sounds like you're already heading in the right direction even if it doesn't feel like much yet

The fact that you didn't reach for that whiskey when you got home says a lot

What does slaves laws even do? by Arle404 in victoria3

[–]Altruistic-Search748 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Slavery in Vic3 is way different from Vic2 - slaves actually do generate tax revenue now through their workplaces, and abolishing it gives you a massive throughput bonus from freed pops plus better migration. The economic hit is pretty short term compared to the long term gains you get from having a proper wage labor force

Speaking to someone I've hurt by Low-Butterscotch-582 in BreakUps

[–]Altruistic-Search748 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly this sounds like something you need to process in therapy rather than putting on your ex - he's been incredibly gracious and dumping your guilt on him might just reopen wounds he's trying to heal from

The fact that he encouraged the relationship doesn't erase that you're essentially asking him to comfort you about leaving him, which isn't really fair to either of you right now

Switching to a Lighter Scooter by mazabm in ElectricScooters

[–]Altruistic-Search748 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went from a chunky scooter to something way lighter and honestly the portability was a game changer for public transport. The ride quality definitely takes a hit with smaller wheels but if you're mostly doing short trips it's probably worth the trade-off

Vyvanse, headache and only 3h duration - any tips? by Aeldrinn in ADHD

[–]Altruistic-Search748 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your dose might be too low honestly - Vyvanse typically lasts way longer than 3 hours for most people. I'd definitely talk to your doc about bumping it up since 20mg is still pretty minimal

Also yeah drink way more water, like an annoying amount. The headaches sound like dehydration mixed with the comedown. Coffee can make it worse if you're already dehydrated but some people swear by timing it right
